Comments

We have decided to disallow Anonymous Comments to our blog. We are tired of people hiding behind "Anonymous" to make hurtful and lame comments on something they obviously don't understand. If you want to make a comment you will have to step up to the plate and tell us who you are. We let you know how we are feeling and you know who we are. If you want to know why we are doing this, please read this lovely comment from Anonymous...

After having read your blogs, and the manner in which you refer to your new daughter, I am appauled at your attitude!! Just because you were neglected and ignored as a child does not give you license to ruin a life: especially that of your new daughter!! I know, I know you will hide behind the thin veneer of sarcasm to defend and rationalize your inappropriate attitude toward Tenley. What does Jeff think about your "cutting" ways, or have you "cut" his off years ago. He must surely have learned by now to go with the flow, and not to argue with you, for your Borderline tendencies surely surface with rage, chastizement and dismissiveness. Oh, and by the way Tenley is not a monkey!

Clearly this person is totally deranged and unbalanced. The post he/she left this on was written by me (Jeff) and was in the most random place way back in July. The only reason we know about it is that I had all comments emailed to me. If they had bothered to read all of our posts they would know that Tenley is indeed a Monkey as she was born in the year of the Monkey just like her Father. They would also know that we love her more than anything in the world and would never let anything bad happen to her.

While any of you who know me personally know that I enjoy angering people and love watching them implode over the littlest things, since these comments were anonymous I couldn't have any fun with them at all. How boring. This just reinforces my belief that the general public at large are the biggest bunch of uneducated morons on the planet.

Oh my goodness! I'm soooo sorry you have put up such with ignorance. There is nothing wrong with playful names for your child. It's obvious that you love your daughter, and that you have fun with your love for her. Any child would be so lucky to have you as parents!

I am so disheartened to see this on your blog. We, too, were attacked verbally on our blog - unfortunately, there are those out there who would rather cast stones and make their own assumptions rather than ask questions and educate themselves. I enjoy your blog and appreciate your candor and forthrightness in sharing your parenting adventures.

Keep up the great parenting!!

The only people who suck more than mean people are mean people who post under the cowardly title of "Anonymous".

I am sorry that you had to go through this. The same thing happened to me but my "anonymous" uses fake names to post. I love your blog and I want to thank you for sharing your story. As my Dad used to say..."Don't let the b*stards get you down"

I'm with the rest of the group that has posted here. It takes such a weak person to hide behind "anonymous". I love reading your blog and look forward to continuing to follow along.
